  While shopping at the Piggly Wiggly, it appears that there is only one cashier at the moment amongst dozens of customers awaiting checkout.  Dana waits patiently in line holding her basket while thumbing through a Star magazine.  After several minutes in passing, it appears that the line isn't moving at all.

Meanwhile the cashier rings up a customer:

**Cashier scans items**

Hefty CinchSak with Unscented Odor Block Technology Tall Kitchen Drawstring Bags 30 ct

"Beep"

$5.54

Personna Gem Stainless Steel Single Edge Razor Blades

"Beep"

$10.49

"Hold up, this item is listed at $5.49.  Why did that just scan at $10.49?  Can I get a price check please?”  Jamie says as she notices the discrepancy.

  The cashier sighs as she rescans the item to see that it rang up to be $10.49 once again.

  “Ma’am, I’m sorry but that’s how much it costs.  Would you like for me to take this back for you?”  Says the cashier as Jamie responds with “Naw bitch, I want you to charge me the correct price.”  The cashier looks at her out of disgust as she announces throughout the store that she requests the presence of the manager trough the PA system.

  The customers behind, become impatient as they wait for Jamie’s transaction to be complete.    Dana closes the magazine as she notices the familiarity of the voice of the woman coming from the front of the line.  She glances over and sees who it is as she quickly positions herself behind the customer in front of her to ensure that she wouldn’t be seen.

  She knows that if Jamie sees her, it will be more problems occurring than just a mere price check.  Suddenly, the manager approaches asking “Ma’am, is there a problem?”  Jamie takes a step back and puts her hands on her hips saying “Uh, this product was listed at $5.49, but this bitch keeps trying to ring it up at $10.49.  Will you please tell this bitch that it’s $5.49?  TELL THE BITCH!”  Jamie demands with her deepest voice as the manager quickly fumbles through their catalog.  “Ma’am, please be patient and I will double-check to make sure you are getting charged the right amount.”

  Jamie waits impatiently while she does her search for the item.  Meanwhile, Dana’s heart races as she fears that she will be seen and reopens the Star magazine ensuring that her face is completely out of Jamie’s viewing.

   The manager finally finds the product as she sees that Jamie was actually charged incorrectly.  “Ma’am, I want to apologize for the inconvenience and I can assure you that we will fix this issue.”  Jamie smiles at a slight as she tells the cashier “I told you bitch! “  The cashier rolls her eyes at her as she re-rings the item and scans the remaining items to complete the purchase.

  The customers behind her mumble to themselves as they pass comments in regards to Jamie’s disruptive behavior.  Dana’s heart continues to pound profusely as she wishes for Jamie to finish and be on her way.

  “The total will be $67.55.” says the cashier as Jamie pauses for a second keeping the customers behind her in suspense, then  pulls a check book out of her purse.  “Do you have a pen?” She says as the cashier searches around and steps away for a moment to locate one.

  The customers become increasingly impatient as the line becomes longer and longer.  Returning, the cashier hands her a pen as Jamie writes out the check.  Handing the cashier the check, she processes it followed with a fake smile saying "Have a nice day." Jamie ignores her and grabs her items and heads towards the exit.  Everyone waiting in line is relieved as the next couple of customers are rung up expeditiously.

  Finally, Dana approaches the counter as she is greeted by the cashier “Sorry for the wait ma’am.  Would you like paper or plastic?”  Dana responds with “Plastic.” As the cashier proceeds to scanning the items.  Dana looks out of the window to see Jamie putting her purchased items in her vehicle.  She notices Jamie fumbling through one of the bags momentarily as the cashier says “Ma’am, you total will be 6.77.”

  Reaching for her debit card, she notices out of the corner of her eye that Jamie is returning as she tells the cashier “Could you please hold on for a second?  I need to grab one more item.”  The cashier looks at her out of disbelief as she walks away before being acknowledged.

  Suddenly, Jamie re-approaches saying “Can a bitch get a receipt?”  The cashier looks around the register to notice that she set it aside as she grabs it and hands it to her saying “Sorry about that ma’am, have a nice day.”  Jamie takes it and gives no response as she walks away once again.  Dana returns with caution as she tells the cashier “You guys don’t carry what I’m looking for so I’ll just pay for what I got.”  Dana hands the cashier $8.00 as the cashier rings her up appropriately and hands her the change.

  Dana grabs her bags and looks out of the window of the store to notice Jamie’s vehicle has left as she exits the store with confidence.  While looking across the parking lot she notices Jamie’s vehicle stopped at the stop sign.  “Shit!” she says as she waits with her items out of Jamie's line of sight  waiting for her vehicle to continue.

 Meanwhile,  Jamie sits at the stop sign in disbelief as she reads an incoming text that read:

"If I tied down your arms and legs, would you fear for your life? Or would you trust that the acts being performed by me will be worth the risk? 

If I blindfolded you, would your heart beat faster? Or would your imagination allow me to surprise you with what I have in store? 

If my hands were around your throat giving you a slight squeeze at every thrust inside your body, would you panic? Or would this bring you to orgasm at the highest decibel?  

If I made you get on your knees as a way to discipline you, would you bow your head in your shame? Or would you make it up to me the best way you can....."

- Phillip

  Dana scurries past Jamie's vehicle unnoticed and makes her way around the corner as she sits behind the wheel staring at her phone.

  Jamie and Phillip have a rather strange relationship.  Knowing the dangers involved with a relationship like theirs, Jamie cannot understand why Phillip is so adamant.  Fed up, she feels that there's only one solution to this.

  She powers the phone completely off before ensuring that her weapon was completely loaded before driving off…..
